- Reliability (4)Ram heavy-duty trucks are generally known for their robust build and powertrain reliability, especially the Cummins diesel engine. Expect it to be a dependable workhorse.
- Maintenance (3)Maintenance costs are typical for a heavy-duty diesel truck, which can be higher than a light-duty gasoline truck due to specialized parts and fluids. However, service intervals are reasonable.
- Technology (2)Technology is minimal in the Tradesman trim, focusing on essential functions. You get a basic infotainment system, but don't expect advanced driver-assist features or a large touchscreen.
- Comfort (3)The Tradesman trim is utilitarian, so comfort is basic. The seats are firm but supportive enough for long hauls. Road noise is present but not overly intrusive for a work truck.
- Dynamics (3)Given it's a heavy-duty truck, the dynamics are as expected. It handles large loads with stability but don't expect nimble cornering. The steering can feel a bit vague.
